The bomb fell but didn?t ignite in your eyes
And your scars are safe from sight below shirt sleeves tonight
You said if you never heard your name again
It would be alright. What goes on in your mind?
My, my,
You're such a beautiful lie
This whole damn place has lost its charm, mmm
The locals are long gone below the bridge each night
You walk head-down on streets once overlooked
Man, they sure look nice now if you can pay the price now
My, my,
You're such a beautiful lie
My, my,
You're such a beautiful lie
You could sink into the river
Float East out to the sea
Settle in the ocean
Big and far as eyes can see
Or hold council in the alley
Bare feet on hot concrete
Just drink yourself to death here
'Cause you never planned on leaving
Sun fails you at first light when you rise
And you drink till the shaking stops, drink till you feel alright
You said you?ll never be the same again
But at least you try now. What goes on in your mind now?
My, my,
You're such a beautiful lie
My, my,
You're such a beautiful lie
